Based on the unbelievably true life stories of these three women, Taraji P. Henson, Janelle Monae, and Octavia Spencer help to bring this story to the big screen ā which definitely qualifies as some Black Girl Magic.

150 years of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, overlooked icon of Black classical music
The British composer was a generational success story before his death at 37 ā yet keeping that legacy in view has always been a challenge, even during his lifetime.

A thread Okay. I feel obliged to check-in after actually seeing James Gunnās SUPERMAN. We loved it. It is an old school epic superhero romp. Only in 2025 would an earnest and diligent Superman be so subversive and divisive.

A thread Without even seeing James Gunnās āSupermanā, or being a huge fan of the character, (Iām a Marvel comics kinda brotha, with the exception of loving Batman.) I can say a thing or two regarding the labels of āwokenessā and being too āpro immigrantā that have been leveled at the film.
